The Mac platform is a great choice for a robust kiosk environment.
If you are out considering a kiosk partner other than Phoenix Kiosk for your project, they may tell you a variety of reasons why Mac is not a good choice for what you're doing. The fact is, the only reason it might be a bad choice is that it will disqualify whatever partner you happen to be talking to at the time. If you ask us, we'll tell you that:
- Mac systems have proven over the years to be the most stable computer platforms on the market.
- The new Leopard operating system is one of most secure operating systems available today right out of the box.

- Mac graphic and video support is world-renowned in its quality and performance.
- The Mac Mini comes complete with built in DVI and VGA compatibility using an Intel GMA 950 graphics processor.
- The Mac Mini utilizes the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor (2 speeds available) for outstanding performance.
- The Mac Mini is a small footprint system that runs cool and with negligible downtime.
- The Mac Mini has built-in 54-Mbps AirPort Extreme wireless networking (based on 802.11g standard) and we have an optional external antenna that you may choose to use on your kiosk.
- You'll get built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45 connector)

If you're not a Mac user, you certainly do not need to consider a Mac-based kiosk, but you might if your application is going to be exceptionally visual and use a lot of multi-media content. PK can assist you in your development efforts on the new platform, and make sure that you have access to enough information to maintain your application.
